Basic Knowledge of Surround Sound What is Surround Sound? What is a Digital Sound Projector? Yamaha’s Audio Technologies Surround sound offers the sense of being surrounded by sounds, an experience common in concert halls and movie theaters. This can be achieved by surrounding the audience with numerous speakers from which sound is output uniformly in all directions.
Glossary Audio/video information Sampling Frequency and Bit Depth These are values that represent the amount of information used to convert analog signals to digital signals. They may be expressed as 48kHz/24bit, for example. • Sampling Frequency This defines the number of samples per second (sampling a finite set of discrete values in an analog signal). The higher the sampling rate, the broader the range of frequencies that can be played back.
